I have just seen a patient who has Type 2 diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidaemia.
Members do not see these Ads. Sign Up.
He had a high-pitched (? stenotic) quadphasic signal through the right posterior tibial artery alone. Dorsalis pedi and perforating peroneals were either mono or biphasic and regular.
Having not ever heard a quadphasic signal before, I wondered if it may represent some type of strange hemodynamic effect from a more proximal occlusion. Capillary fill times and cutaneous skin perfusion all appear satisfactory.
Any advice and thoughts appreciated. Obviously its not related to cardiac or abdominal aorta issues, so must be infrainguinal and probably infrapopliteal to the right side.
